38 Colorful Sweaters for Grown Women for 2024
I love a colorful sweater in the winter. The sky is gray, the snow turns to gray slush, we're bundled up in black coats, and the world feels dreary. A colorful sweater can add brightness to our outlook and our environment. Pair with jeans for the weekend, wide-leg trousers for the office, faux leather jeans for a night out, and a sequined skirt for a holiday party. Come spring, pair with lightweight chinos and white jeans, and on breezy summer nights, throw on over a tank and denim shorts. I'm sharing the prettiest colorful sweaters for grown women I have found this season!

As I mentioned in my November edition of The Laundry Pile, colorful and printed items transcend trends. Unlike solids which may look too on the nose of a certain year, you may find you wear your colorful sweaters longer in life.

While there are certain colors that are more trendy this season than others, a colorful sweater breaks the trend rules and always brings joy. I hope you liked this collection and find comfort and joy in the season and your closet!

Sadly, I didn’t find an all cotton sweater. Due to sensitive skin i cannot wear wool, or synthetics. Only cotton and bamboo.
I would be helpful if any featured sweaters included and ID’d cotton sweaters.
Loved seeing all the colors.
Thank you for this feedback, Mary! I will try to do this more often in future posts!
I love color in the winter and hate how everyone wears black and grey. It feels like a dystopian society. However, the cost of sweaters has gotten out of control. $150 dollars for a sweater essentially made of plastic? (I’m talking about you, Boden). No, thank you. The cost of clothes has increased while the quality has decreased dramatically. I want sweaters made of natural fibers, especially at that price point. If I am going to buy a synthetic sweater, then I will go to someplace like Target and pay $19.99 instead.
Awesome collection, absolutely love all the colors and patterns!
Agreed. I want 100% natural fibers: merino wool, Shetland wool, mohair, silk, minimum 2ply cashmere, 100% cotton, bamboo, Blends of natural fibers, slow fashion that lasts several years. I won’t buy synthetic shoes, boots, belts, scarves, handbags, wallets…the only clothing items where synthetics are appropriate: workout wear.
Vivian, Mary and Ann Marie, So true! Thank you. I totally agree.
Great variety of choices!
